R - 97% of people are stuck in a Rut. Their typical response to “What’s going on?” is “Nothing.” Where are they going with that attitude? Nowhere! They’re too stuck in their rut to move to the next level. They’ve settled for what’s comfortable, which means that they’ve settled for how things are and have no motivation to change.
I love when I hear people talking to their friends and they say “What’s going on?” The friend responds “Nothing. Come on over.” Let me give you a clue…Don’t go over there! It only makes sense. If there’s nothing going on, why would you waste your time? Remember, your future is greatly determined by who you spend your time with. If you hang out with people that are stuck in a rut and going nowhere, soon you’ll be in a rut, too. Do you really want to be sitting around doing nothing forever?
Champions are continually moving forward and developing new dreams, goals, and visions. They want to push and develop themselves as much as possible, because in so doing, they are an inspiration to others. When someone accomplishes the impossible, it’s as though they’re telling everyone else, “I did it, and you can do it, too!” People that are stuck in a rut are comfortable.
Don’t get comfortable. Get uncomfortable, because discomfort causes you to move. It causes you to take action. Remember, if you’re not moving, you’re dying. If you’re not moving, you’re not helping other people. You’re basically saying, “I’m comfortable with what I have, I don’t want anything more. Leave me alone and I’ll be just fine.” Mediocrity is not for you! Live your life with passion. Live your life with honor. Live your life knowing that you are making a difference and making a positive contribution to other peoples’ lives.
Champion 3%’ers are Relentless when it comes to their dreams. They smile when the naysayers tell them “You’re still going to seminars? Come on, that stuff doesn’t work. Why do you keep blowing your money on books and CDs. It’s a money making scam!” You have to be relentless in pursuit of your dreams to handle comments like that. If it ever gets to you, just take a look at the status of their life. Where are they headed? Nowhere! What are they doing? Nothing! You can’t let people like that distract you from your calling.
What happens when you don’t read or listen to motivational material for five days? Your brain starts to get dirty. We’re surrounded by negativity. You start to listen to the people around you. “Maybe they’re right. Maybe my dream really is too unbelievable.” You must be relentless and focus on your dream every single day. The famous motivational speaker Zig Ziglar says, “Some people say motivation doesn’t last. Neither does a shower. That’s why you do it every day.”
You have to immerse yourself in personal development on a daily basis so that the negativity doesn’t cause you to lose focus. You don’t take a shower once and expect it to last ten years. You don’t eat once and expect not to get hungry again for a week. So, why would you think reading one book in five years is going to help you achieve your dreams? It sounds ridiculous, because it is! Be relentless and refuse to be stuck in a rut.
